I don't play poker and mostly ignore it if my husband is watching it on tv. So the spouse is watching this, and I'm like, poker, meh...and then about a quarter of the way into it, I was totally engrossed. Like, this is REALLY INTERESTING. Jennifer Tilly is lovely, there's a bunch of information about the psychology of the game, the interviews with the women players were personal and interesting. The social experiment of seeing if other players respond differently to playing opposite a man or a woman was surprising. My husband perked up whenever he saw poker players he knew of or recognized.

I went from "poker, meh" to, "this is fascinating."It was also interesting to see what drew these women to poker. They all have such a passion for the game. It's inspiring to see people who have a passion for things. Worth watching.

Great movie! Loved the interviews! I’ve played with many of these ladies and so proud of how they represent us in the industry! Would have loved to have seen some focus on Ladies Poker Organizations such as WPA, LIPS and PLON as well as all the home Women’s poker leagues taking place annually to send ladies to the WSOP. Otherwise, I found the film an accurate representation of women in poker!

Well written, well directed, well edited, and very interesting. Full disclosure: my oldest daughter is a friend of Sandra and put money into this movie. All the same, I knew nothing about the production, aside from "I'm going to Las Vegas this week to help shoot a couple of scenes", and hints on how it was coming from time to time. I'm blown away! The women featured are amazing, certainly belying the notion that beautiful women aren't smart. They all seem to have mastery of the game, yet not the hubris to assume they don't need to study and learn more. Go girls!

Enjoyed learning about the skills (and psychological tricks) in the game of poker and the stories behind the women players past and present - all with a huge entertainment and fun factor- extremely well written, shot and directed movie.

The film appears to be slotted between an audience of poker players that may find it too simplistic to be entertaining and people who know little about poker and may assume that all women poker players are winning millions.

I typically list myself as a woman while playing online. It is not a lie if there is no expectation of the truth.
